Just found out that The Eagles' Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) is now the highest-selling album in American history, being certified 38x Platinum? Anyone have a number for how many times it got returned to the store after the buyer actually looked at the track listing and figured out "Hotel California" isn't on it?

"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped. Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses. Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

I would have clasped the album to my chest and cherished it forever for NOT having that hideous song on it. 'Thriller' is still tops worldwide, though. Boru

That's because if any Eagles fan was paying attention, they would know that Hotel California wasn't released until December 1976, therefore logically, it shouldn't be included on that album anyway.

Anyone have a number for how many times it got returned to the store after the buyer actually looked at the track listing and figured out "Hotel California" isn't on it? That I know. However, I know that there are some casual fans who don't know the chronology and I suspect that some people just picked it up, sight unseen, and picked it up without bothering to even look at the back cover. I can remember my mother once buying a copy of Queen's Greatest Hits (the 1992 version with the red cover) and not knowing until she listened to it that it didn't include "Bohemian Rhapsody" (because, for reasons that are fucking stupid, Hollywood Records decided to expand the original Greatest Hits, but decided to split it into two CDs available separately, but not together, taking all the disadvantages of single-disc and double-disc greatest hits compilations, and none of the strengths except, well, the music is good, and it makes them a shit-ton of money now that Freddie Mercury's dead and Wayne's World revived interest in the band, with 23 million copies sold between the two of them.)

Wasn't that in the top 100 for like 25 years?
